I have the RST. I make 565/565 to the wheels. I have been on this clutch since 2008 and really like it.

Just recently I went to the track and when I hit 3rd gear something happened and the clutch slipped. Not sure why and haven't.been able to duplicate it. I have a fidanza flywheel. Not the mcleod. Works great.

Sactown has an RST mcleod flywheel making almost 700 rwhp.

They will jump down your throat defensively (they assume you have a problem and want to blame it on them). McLeod has been the exact opposite. Amazing customer service and amazing clutch. I'm never going back. The twin disc is so easy to drive on the street and stands up to insane abuse at the track. (I have the RXT, can't comment on the RST, but people seem to be just as happy with it.)
I should have mentioned I have a McLeod steel flywheel and make a little over 500 to the rear wheels. (Thanks Simon).
